"It's a place where we hope women will come together to find tools and resources, and hone some skills and make new friends," says Rose Cappa Rotunno. "One of the phrases that we are using often is, "'we rise while lifting others up.'"
One of the keynote speakers of the summit will be April Ryan, the longest-serving African American female White House correspondent in history.
News 12's Tara Rosenblum will be moderating her discussion.
Attorney General Letitia James will also be a keynote speaker.
